Great little spot to take the family. Looking to get out and enjoy the nice weather and take the family. There was a slight mix up on our food order, but they fixed it promptly. They even followed up and checked on us to make sure we were good. Food and ice cream were great.
Please make sure your employees are adding more flavoring. I stopped by today and there was barely any flavoring. We drove 5 minutes away and decided to drive all the way back for more flavoring because we were so disappointed. Note to self I've tried wedding cake, cotton candy, grape, pumpkin spice. Cinnamon tastes like fireball and bites back
It is a great place to walk to for a sweet treat. A fire pit in the colder months and many flavors for snowcones in the summer. In addition they have a tiny game room and a stage where I've seen movies, musicians, and other activities happen at. Neat place.
Beautiful atmosphere and great music. Treats for adults and children. Cant wait to try the food. Fun/chill vibe and my children cant wait to go back! Great time!!!
I love this place ?? The worker's are so friendly and helpful. The owner is one of the greatest guys I've ever met. They have great food they have sno-cones for kids and adults you can bring your fur babies they even have sno-cones for them. They even have a fireplace the kiddos can roast marshmallows why the adults listen to the band play.
Couldn't have asked for a better date night. We had a funnel cake that was amazing and boozy sno cones. They played a movie that we also enjoyed. Almost a hidden gem! So glad we stumbled on their website.
My funnel cake was hard as the picnic table today. The photo of my fork is a result of trying to get a piece off.. it's not hot nor did it melt.. the funnel cake batter was just that hard.
This place is a welcome addition to the neighborhood! My wife and I have been a few times now. On our previous visits we got traditional sno-cones. Tonight we tried a boozy stuffed sno-ball each. The first we tried was the orange dreamsicle - orange sno-cone with vodka, and vanilla ice cream. The second was a bananas foster rumchata - banana sno-cone with rumchata and vanilla ice cream. So delicious! On future visits we'd like to try the food. Other people were eating and it looked good. We just always
Good sno-cones you can flavor yourself from their new smoking train dispenser. Friendly staff, spaced seating w/shade options and a big gas fireplace for cooler days. Also has some arcade games, bike racks, a limited menu of decent lunch/dinner food options, beer and you can get spiked sno-cones w/alcohol too.
Diet snow cone syrup. Not good, have to go to another location to get real syrup.
Our niece was in town so we had a family happy hour at BSC. We just had snow cones/ice cream, but everything was really cool!
This place is a great spot to dine in with family or just a nice hang out even if you are only waiting for take out. The atmosphere is nice with ample outdoor seating, and an arcade room to play in while you wait for food. We ordered a double bacon cheeseburger which was huge and delicious, a kids burger and fries, and for the first time the chicken tenders which were a delicious surprise! Super tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. I can't say the last time I had a chicken tender that good! We al
I ordered a plain bacon cheeseburger for my picky teenager and received it will everything on it. We did not notice until we were home. I tried to call but no one answered so, I went back and asked for another one. They brought the burger out to me pretty quickly which was odd because we waited a while the first time. It was odd so I asked the employee if it had been redone and he stated it had been. I got home and gave it to my teenager and he stated it was cold and tasted like the flavor of the toppings.
It has potential but unfortunately, it took over 30 minutes to get our food. The bees swarmed our food. The scent of dumpsters lurked over the picnic tables in the back. The pulled pork tasted like 3 day old leftovers. Really hoping the two bites I took will not have me running to porcelain. The burgers were overcooked. There was a baseball team that came right after us and we still hadn't gotten our food. They most likely waited an hour to get their food. This establishment can not handle large orders. Bot
Unfortunately, we were flogged by bees and flies during our visit! It really took away from the experience. I like supporting local. Boozy snocone, 12 oz beer, two adult meals and one kids meal, one soft serve dish- and we spent over $50 pre-tip. We ate every bit. The chicken strips tasted great, but you only get two of them.
Incredibly slow service. They seem very unorganized and inefficient. Ordered a funnel cake and it took 30 min (we timed it) before we got it. It came out with black spots and shriveled like it was way overcooked. Didn't think you could mess up funnel cake. They only offered to remake it. Also, they had a live band playing 70s music. My kids where covering their ears it was so loud. I don't need to listen to yacht rock at 11. We got the second funnel cake within 5 min and it was undercooked. We gave up and a
Kids enjoyed the snow cones and the adults enjoyed the boozy snow cones. Surprisingly large selection of food, including burgers, pulled pork and wings, among other options. Their outdoor setup is great for families with a lot of room to spread out and let the kids run and a fire pit for smores later at night.
Great 1/3 lb bacon cheeseburger and seasoned fries! Atmosphere nice, tables well spread out. Visited about 3:30p thinking I would be between lunch/dinner, but a child's birthday party was in action, so I took food home. A bit pricey for soda..16oz at 3.50. Total order 12.50 without tax/tip.
Spent a wonderful evening by the fire, playing a board game we had brought and enjoying our frozen treats!
Went right a opening time on a Saturday. Sno-cones were great, food (cheeseburger, corn dog and fries) were very good too. I was told it was all made fresh to order and nothing frozen and we could tell. Everything was clean and well kept. Will be back for sure!
Our food was NOT good! The kids liked their sno-cones, and the atmosphere is really nice, but the burgers were totally overcooked and dry, and the sauce on the wings was so hot it was inedible. Wanted to like it, but I didn't have the same experience as others. Not willing to risk a second try.
They have a lot of space to spread out. The frozen desserts are very good and the kids had fun mixing their own flavors. I'm looking forward to trying the hot foods they offer and maybe coming for smores!
Stopped by for lunch with the family. The menu is fairly simple. Ordered the nachos, blt, portobello sandwich, and the double cheeseburger. Three bottles of water as well. Total was ~$46. Seemed a bit high for a snocone stand. The blt was good, the cheeseburger and the portobello were a mess though. The buns dissolved quickly and the veggies were a little wet (fresh?) Which didn't help. The fries are spiced, which was a good. The nachos, which were $5 was a handful of round tortilla chips and a small cup of
This place is everything you can hope for. I haven't even tried the boozy snocones and I'm still in love. Simple food is cooked perfectly and hot damn those shoe string fries with seasoning are little sticks of joy. I will be back until I've tasted everything on the menu.
Fun new place with old school flair. They have an arcade with coin operated video games like pac man. Nice gas fire pit plenty of seating patio or grass. Ample parking close to the consession stand including handicap with additional parking in the back lot. Snow cones with a scoop of ice cream, a surprise I didn't think it was going to be good however it was great. They have beer and boozy cones, will be going back. Fun and family friendly check it out.
We love this place but when it's busy, they can't keep up. There is only one line to order and it takes forever and only one bathroom. But...great food and drinks and love that they have music many nights.
Had a burger, fries and a soda. A bit pricy especially if you bring a family, but there was entry of burger and plenty of fries to satisfy the biggest of appetites. The burger thick and juicy and cooked just right. The beer was cold and snow cones in many flavors to satisfy your craving and cool you down on a hit humid night. Plenty of places to sit on the spacious patio and lawn with lots of additional space to bring your own chairs and sit on the lawn to enjoy the band and music. Come and ear and stay fo
Our first time to the Ballwin Sno-Cone, and we know it won't be our last! Absolutely loved the eats, the treats and the on site entertainment! Had some food and fries before we dove into our Sno-Cones with soft-serve at the bottom! Enjoyed it all to the max! And made some new friends while we were at it!
Ballwin Sno Con is the absolute best place I have ever been to in my entire life in St Louis! I went there for a birthday celebration, and it was great! I highly recommend it!
Worst snow cone ever.... basically just ice. Not near as colorful as the pictures. And hardly any flavor. Atmosphere is nice however games are extremely over priced for little ones. One dollar just for a "chance" to win outta the claw machine
It was fun!! Fire pit to make s'mores and keep warm in mid September is great! Burger and fries were delicious with good portion size.
Definitely do not recommend the food very dry, not seasoned taste like a wet leather and cardboard. Not trying to hate or be rude but I'd rather eat a McDouble from McDonald's and I don't eat McDonald's
Great place and atmosphere. Small Town feel but big enough to have a lot of people. Fire pit is a nice touch. We will definitely be spending a lot of time here this summer.
Great little spot with plenty of activities. Sure sno-cones are good, but the food is great too!
Great boozey cones. Best funnel cake ever. Great regular snow cones. Great people. A really nice place to take the family with a fire pit and plenty of seating.
First visit and enjoyed a Rumchata cinnamon vanilla snow cone. Hope to come back soon to try more
We absolutely LOVE Ballwin Sno-Cone! They've only been open a couple months, but we've already been 5 or 6 times. I got the Rum Chata sno-cone. It was like eating frozen Cinnamon Toast Crunch!
Cool hang out, tons of room, shade and sun, beer selection, good for all ages! Thank you for having sugar-free and dairy free options!
This is a wonderful place for adults and children they have movies Outdoors food and adult snow cones I'm just sorry that I found this place so late in the season but I will be back come summer
They've got a cute little outdoor movie theater. You can sit and watch and enjoy while you eat your snow cone treat.
SCRUMPTIOUS! First time visit to Ballwin Sno-Cone last night. I went traditional with a rootbeer float (perfect!) while Nan was a bit more adventurous with a pina colada sno-cone (yum!). Pleasant setting. Super friendly staff. Excellent+ service! Looking forward to our next visit!
What a fun place! The food we had was great and my 4 yr old loved the snow cone! For sure visit this place with the family and enjoy the weather outside.
This place is so great! If I were to have an adult party for a celebration the Ambiance of being outside, the service the setting, and the cleanliness are fantastic!
This place is great! The kid loved her sno-cone and so did the dog (pork broth flavored for the dog!)
48F outside, my husband had the sno cone; Aunts had Ice Cream; Cousins had Smores around the open pit fire. Everyone enjoyed their dish! Had fun catching up.
If you haven't been yet, you're missing out! Adult-beverage snow cones too! Great lunch and dinner menu with S'mores available at night by the fire pit!
Creative sno cones, including booze filled and dog friendly cones! The food menu was delicious. Location is very spacious.
Nice place and the snocones are the best around my New go to for any kind of frozen drink I highly recommend this place if your able to, plus a arcade area and adult frozen drinks
Very good snow cones, but the board where they show movies is colored on and its hard to see. Other the that amazing service and food
The snow comes are good of course.. as always I mean you really can't go wrong last year they had some really good fries they have totally changed their fry vendor or something it's not good at all otherwise not a totally bad place Had To change the stars ... 5 star for the sno cone 2 star for the fries changed but that was addressed below
This little spot keeps getting better and better. The prices are great and the atmosphere is family oriented. Love the fire pit. We'll keep coming back!
I love the cashier Lily she is great at making snow cones. She made me a tasty orange snow cone that i devoured.
Interesting experience. It started off bad, but ended up being a great experience. Our order wasn't right, and the owner did everything he could to make our experience the best. Thank for the great customer service experience
Great place for a cool treat on a hot summer night. Our dog loved the pup-cone (pork broth sno cone)!
My family loves Ballwin Sno-Cone! We have done a few friend hang outs here. I love the variety of food and snow cones!
Love the owner he's a great guy. And can make you just about anything.
A little bit more expensive than I anticipated, but the chicken fingers might have been the best ever (besides my recipe) and the burger was a classic go-to choice.
Best place to go with your little ones. They have a sno cone bar! Malibu rum sno cones! They have a mini arcade
Love this place, Great people and very friendly! Highly recommend this place to anybody who loves adult snowcones!
Sno cones is right at the top of my food pyramid. This place is amazing. To say they sell sno cones is not giving them justice.
Awesome place for the family. Good food, drinks, and snocones. Great patio as well
Incredible food! Incredible service! Awesome restaurant, definitely recommend to anyone in the area, or anywhere else for that matter!
Best burger in town. If you like boozy shakes, this is the place for you.
Awesome neighborhood bar/ snow cone place! Great wings and food too!
Excellent burgers and a great atmosphere for families to hang out together.
This place is cozy and fun. A little over priced, but it's worth the relaxed experience with the family.
A really great rootbeer float. Looking forward to going back to try their other items!
Great place! Good food & great environment to just relax & have a good time out. Perfect!
It was great. Prices seem fair. Girls working very nice. Will go BBC ack.
Fair pricing, live music on the weekends, friendly staff, yummy sno cones & food!
Incredible afternoon with friends for adult snow-beverages and lunch! Everything was spectacular!
Very unique experience... They definitely have a great thing going on there
The place is amazing, really good adult sno cones and awesome food.
Super delicious and fun! The gin grapefruit sno-cone as amazing!
A friendly kid favorite, this company is always ready to support their community.
Long wait, even though I was the only customer in line being served.. I was expecting higher quality food for the prices listed.
Very fun loved the arcade area and the whole set up is very cute
Great place to hang with family and friends. From kids sno cones to adult floats
Had to wait a half hour to get served. Don't have a fundraiser if the kitchens and handle the crowd.
Go there, enjoy the amazing snow ones and if you're an adult enjoy the adult snowcones.
Fun place to enjoy food and sno cones in an outdoor setting.
Great snocones and a big selection! They even have boozey snocones.
Decent food, fun for all. Worth a visit.
Awesome place! Super fun place to take the family one evening
The food, the service and the picnic area was AMAZING!!! Highly recommend
Not as good as I had heard. And a lil pricey compared to others.
Only ever had the snow cones! But they are yummy!
Has a great area to sit and enjoy your cone. With a fire-pit!
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
